>Description:
Configure script fails when detecting $host_arch.

guilty part is:

 # host's CPU/instruction set
  case "$(uname -m 2>&1)" in
      x86_64|amd64|i[3-9]86*|i86pc|x86|x86pc|k5|k6|k6_2|k6_3|k6-2|k6-3|pentium*|athlon*|i586_i686|i586-i686) host_arch=i386 ;;
      ia64) host_arch=ia64 ;;
      macppc|ppc*|Power*) host_arch=ppc ;;


uname -m gives us powerpc, this isn't here, so add it.


 # host's CPU/instruction set
  case "$(uname -m 2>&1)" in
      x86_64|amd64|i[3-9]86*|i86pc|x86|x86pc|k5|k6|k6_2|k6_3|k6-2|k6-3|pentium*|athlon*|i586_i686|i586-i686) host_arch=i386 ;;
      ia64) host_arch=ia64 ;;
      macppc|ppc*|Power*|powerpc) host_arch=ppc ;;


builds and installs now.
>How-To-Repeat:
cd to /usr/ports/multimedia/mplayer  make install
>Fix:
edit configure script in work/mplayer-export-2012-07-21


find section 
# host's CPU/instruction set

patch section  macppc|ppc*|Power*) host_arch=ppc ;;

with            macppc|ppc*|Power*|powerpc) host_arch=ppc ;;



changing system var UNAME_m to ppc would also work, but this may break other ports.
